I had one two years ago? I remember really liking Hotspot. The rest were OK. If only they were more fun to transform, I would probably keep them, but yeah in the end I sold them off.

 

Only other thing I can remember is Katana/Blades's helicopter blades/sword replacement that came with Hot Spot...

 

Oof... if there's confirmation that Axel is fixed and no longer prone to pulling a "Bayverse Jazz" & breaking, they will go QUICKLY.
My Axel, last I had them out, was fine, but I'd grab another just in case it does succumb to the issue one day.

 

^^ Agreed, I also need a new Axel...hope they make more of him than the other figures so he's not too hard to get...

 

Nice, I can wait.

 

Axel was the only one I heard had defects...Handlebars same as the thrilling 30s bikes...snap off...but did hear they replaced them with metal ones in another figure. I thought the set looked great for a CHUG scale in the older classics...and would have went great with the MT Computron, Fansproject Monstructor/Dino King, and Menasaur....but would have felt small next to tfc King Poseidon and Abominus...so I went with TFC's Defensor...plus the bigger version makes him scale with my MMC figures a little better to use as the Lost Light versions...although no Rook combiner.

 

I gotten maketoys yellow giant set recently and I'm impressed. I'm keeping my eye on this, because this will be my go to defensor. Now I need a superion, bruticus, and a measaur. Also going to have to track down MT's computron.

 

If TFSource still has one in stock, I’m pretty sure they’ll pay you to take it off their hands.

 

Nah all out as of checking now. Unless I miss looked

 

Maketoys combiners always had a certain charm to them, their stylised takes were always refreshing. I had the OS KO of this guy which I think suffered from the up scaling with certain joint issues, I'd grab the original at a reasonable price in a heart beat.

Man, I'd love to see their take on more decepticon combiners, this guy and computron were actually interesting enough that'd I'd probably get on board with it over the slavish g1 stuff we get now.

 

Earlier today, I decided to play around with the individual components of Guardia, as I made my way to Groove, he literally fell apart,not like I was surprised, I figured he was already broken before even touching him. I was kinda bummed out, but messing with Hot Spot cheered me up.

 

if you just look at him wrong, he will combust in open flames.

 

Is the QC not that great on this combiner?

 

Pretty much summed up right on this page.

 

Hehe, deep down I wanted to believe otherwise. I guess I will have to pass on this, it looks great though

 

Well I think to be fair, the QC was not great on one specific member, Axel. The rest were fine ....

 

My Axle snapped in half a while back. After waiting (what I think is) years for a reissue, I've just about given up  

 

Someone reissue this please.

I want to believe!!!

 

I might've let that pent up frustration finally boil over... and now I own Prometheus  

 

I actually got the replacement part to fix my Axle but I don't even know how to repair it. I want to buy another one just to avoid it.

Got tired of waiting on the re-release and tried to fix my Axle with the replacement part. First screw came out easy. The second one I striped and now I'm stuck...any suggestions to how I can get this screw out?
